Protect our land, water, habitat, wildlife and people

Newspaper Editorials

We need to keep this story as a top of mind issue for the public — it is still surprising how many people in our region are still uninformed about this project. An effective way of doing this is by sending letters to the editor. Remember, your representatives at the local, state, and federal levels keep up with the editorial pages of major newspapers. A variety of talking points you may want to consider as the focus of your letter are provided on the Talking Points for Letters page.

Roanoke Times

Send us your letters on public issues. You must include your name, address and, for verification only, a phone number where you can be reached during the day. Your letter should be 200 words or fewer. If accepted for publication, it will be printed in the printed Roanoke Times, if space is available. We welcome letters on public issues. When citing an article in The Roanoke Times, please give its headline and date. All letters are edited. Because of the volume we receive, we regret we can publish only a portion of them, and cannot always acknowledge receipt. Source: http://ww2.roanoke.com/editorials/

About Preserve the NRV

Preserve the NRV is a citizen advocacy group working to stop the proposed Mountain Valley Pipeline. The group will work with the citizens of the New River Valley, as well as all of the impacted regions in Virginia and West Virginia to advance a shared mission of stopping the pipeline project and, if necessary, advise on any possible construction routes and sites for the proposed pipeline that would diminish the negative consequence of the project on the environment, land, and citizens of Virginia and West Virginia.
